Do Not Take Selfies with the Fluffy Cows! Visit America's National Parks with Matt Davis

Perhaps one of our country’s greatest treasures is our extensive system of National Parks. Join author Matt Davis as he takes us on a virtual tour of some of the nation’s most famous parks. Showcasing dozens of his original photographs, he’ll provide interesting details about how the parks were created, the unique landscapes and wildlife they protect, and some of the challenges they face from ever-increasing tourism.
